Yes, yes, i get it. sounds like a dumb question, but hear me out. i always considered "John" as to "John doe" as in "name is unknown or classified" so players can better fill his shoes (err.. Boots). This is also supported by the fact that they didn't show his face, ever.

I'd appreciate if someone clarified, thnx! XD

Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

It's his real name

John is actually his name, it's a common name, but there you go.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Although Bungie gave him the actual name John I wouldn't be surprised if they gave him the name John because of the 'John Doe' that is given to unrecognizable bodies (since you never see MC's face).

It's name I'm sure of it even though I read on the pedia that they are given code names especially with their number they are given for example 117.

I can't quite remember it but, I think Kurt-051 was given a name that wasn't his real last name. It was "ambrose" which derived from Greek terms means "immortal" hence Spartans never are KIA, they are always MIA. His real last name is Treveylan.

I think this was in the first book. I'm pretty sure his actual name is John

Um, no, other Spartans are named and we can't even see them at all.

Marine: "Got a new contact. Unknown Classification!"
Lord Hood: "If it isn't one of ours, take it out."
MC: "This is bus 117, can anyone hear me? Over."
Lord Hood: "Isolate that signal. Master Chief, you mind telling me you're doing at that school?"
MC: "Sir... picking up these kids."

Sounds like Naked Snake to me... aka Big Boss aka Jack aka John Doe.
